Austria: European Bike Week on Baško jezero (Lake Faak)

The first motorcycle meeting at Lake Faak took place in 1998 and was a Harley-Davidson anniversary event at this time. The first meeting took place with 15,000 participants and next year the event was renamed to European Bike Week. In the next few years, it grew from a small event to now the biggest event the rocker- and biker scene of Europe and the third largest event worldwide. With Nada we visited the event on a much less crowded Wednesday.
